The 46th annual Harvest Bowl program at North Dakota State University will be
held Nov. 8 and 9.

The NDSU Harvest Bowl program recognizes the success, dedication and hard work
of outstanding agriculturists in 53 counties in North Dakota and 7 counties in
western Minnesota.

Highlights of the event include a Harvest Bowl dinner and awards program Nov. 8
at the Delta by Marriott in Fargo, and the Harvest Bowl football game between
NDSU and Western Illinois on Nov. 9.

Also on Nov. 9, as part of Harvest Bowl, honorees will participate in
educational sessions and tours on the NDSU campus.

As the state’s land-grant university, NDSU plays a major role in contributing
knowledge through research, academic programs and Extension. More than 2,700
agriculturists have been recognized and more than $285,000 in scholarships have
been awarded to NDSU student athletes who are studying agriculture, business or
premed, and come from an agricultural background.

An agribusiness award recipient is chosen annually. This award recognizes
individuals who have distinguished themselves in the field of agriculture and
business in North Dakota and beyond.

Former North Dakota State Senator, Bill Bowman, will receive the 2019 award.
